Dua Lipa’s album doesn’t fit the mold of AOTY winners. For me, I feel like the nom is her reward. She’s still a relatively new artist and I can’t see the Recording Academy wanting to reward her. I think her best shot at a GF win will be for Record of the Year.

As of right now, the award is Taylor’s to lose. That doesn’t mean that the race can’t change though…

If voters listen to albums by Jacob Collier or Black Pumas… or even the more mainstream HAIM, one of them could win.

Had Post Malone gotten into the Pop or Rock genre categories I would have said he had a chance, but he didn’t, so it looks like he won’t have enough support.

Jhene Aiko and Coldplay have no shot.

LMAO. Jhené is absolutely in this. Funny how people make baseless predictions that favour their faves out of fear for more talented people winning. Chilombo was a hit and many would describe it as Aiko’s magnum opus. She has a cult following. Passion votes could favour her here.

These noms are fine. I don’t mind The Weeknd’s snubs, but BL deserved ROTY at the very least. Summer Walker’s snubs also hurt, but overall, Jhene saved the day.

Jhene used to be called the female The Weeknd, maybe voters avenge his snubs by voting for the female him..plus she is one of two? POC’s in AOTY and her album will cross 1M by next week, whew.

whew! Jhene did that! And she did it with the obstacle that votes without the accented e at the end won’t count. Clearly there’s passion for her. The most deserving nom of the day. I knew she was a lock for Progressive R&B..really need her to snatch a surprise AOTY too. Chilombo is a masterpiece!

People tried to tell me that Chloe x Halle were more likely in AOTY, meanwhile I had Jhene in my predix for months. An absolute Queen. So so deserving. Summer Walker was her biggest comp in Progressive R&B. With Summer in the dust Jhene is the clear frontrunner. Whewwww! Also Chilombo will cross 1M in sales in 2 weeks wheww

Also, Jhené has the best selling R&B album this year with 878k copies sold. If there’s one artist who will benefit from passion votes, it’s her. She has slowly, but steadily build momentum to have a big breakout with the Grammys. I mean it’s criminal that Souled Out and Trip were totally shut out, but Sail Out did fairly well in 2014. Plus she had lots od visibility this year in terms of features with H.E.R, John Legend, Summer Walker, Kehlani, The Dream eatc.

If there’ll be a R&B nominee here it’ll most likely be either Jhené or Summer Walker, not Chloe x Halle

I agree, The Great fits the shows SAG usually go for, especially in Ensemble. But calling Hoult and Fanning A List film stars is a reach.

I think the only obstacle would be that Hulu hasn’t really done well at SAG, save for Handmaid’s and maybe The Act.

I just finished Little Fires Everywhere and wow! I mean I didn’t like how they went for a melodramatic tone instead of going for a much darker I guess Sharp Objects esque tone (even though I usually like melodramas) but Reese and Kerry served! How on earth did Reese get snubbed for delivering one of the performances of the year?

I’m officially rooting for Kerry to get her dues at the Emmys this year (sorry Cate and Regina)!

Not happening, but I agree. Kerry delivered a career best. Queen of TV.
